Detailed explanation-1: -The id operates on the pleasure principle (Freud, 1920) which is the idea that every wishful impulse should be satisfied immediately, regardless of the consequences. When the id achieves its demands, we experience pleasure when it is denied we experience ‘unpleasure’ or tension.
Detailed explanation-2: -The id is driven by the pleasure principle, which strives for immediate gratification of all desires, wants, and needs.1 If these needs are not satisfied immediately, the result is a state of anxiety or tension. For example, an increase in hunger or thirst should produce an immediate attempt to eat or drink.
Detailed explanation-3: -The pleasure principle dictates that the id will seek out the most immediate way to gratify this need. Once the ego has developed, however, the reality principle will push the ego to look for more realistic and acceptable ways to fill these needs.
Detailed explanation-4: -Also, there’s no proof of the id, ego, or superego, and their respective aspects of control over the human psyche, much as we still like to use those terminologies today. And this is just a small sampling of his theories and ideas that have been debunked in the decades since their presentation.
Detailed explanation-5: -The most primitive part of the human mind, the id is the source of our bodily needs, wants, desires, and impulses. Freud believed that the id acts according to the “pleasure principle” – the psychic force that motivates the tendency to seek immediate gratification of any impulse.
